Fall 2017
As workplaces evolve, old typologies die. To reconcile the relevant lessons learned from these past approaches, this building combines the enfilade, the free plan, the raumplan, and the courtyard into a difficult whole. The result is a continuous snake-like structure which winds through columns and crosses multiple levels to create a variety of homogeneous spaces. Where it bends, the kink disrupts its continuity, preserving a semblance of a cellular condition.
